Disappointing year for Montgomery. I thought he was gonna be a factor on the big league level this year but he’s been pretty mediocre even in AAA.

forensic

He’s bored…

TomH

If so, given his profession, that’s a character deficiency.

Jon G

Hope he is not injured, but wouldnt surprise me given the control + velocity issues…

JU

How many days until it is announced that Montgomery has an injury? Command and velocity go bye bye…arm problem say hi hi.

Bichette is really turning his season around lately.
Last 10 games: .421/.500/.711

I hope he fixed his swing, it had completely fallen apart his first year. I also hope he ditched the “imitating Jose Bautista” swing and has established his own swing. We all tend to forget Bautista was terrible, terrible hitter until 2010. Joey Bats’ mechanics are far to complicated to even try to get the timing right.

*his second year, not his first

It can be a very beautiful and effective if the timing is perfected. But, there in lies the problem.

Bo Knows

Yeah but it took Joey Bats how long to get it right? And he wasn’t emulating anyone, its the swing he used from childhood. Getting The timing right is too hard for someone to try and copy

For some reason I was thinking he threw out a runner on his way to first base.

Spaceman Spiff

Maybe he made a nice catch and doubled the guy off at first?

Wayne

Camarena has a delivery that is hard to repeat thats why he sucks!
Tommy kahnle i hope gets a promotion to aaa by july and by september i hope he gets called up! He should be given a shot at closer for the yankees next year but yankees will not do that and will give up a first round draft pick to sign a closer as insurance.

No closers good enough that they would be worth the $14M Qualifying offer.

Bichette seems to be turning it around. He obviously has a long way to go, but it is promising to see a .256/.326/.390 line so far in may.

I’m not the droids you’re looking for…

Shrinking the sample further looks even better (duh). Last 10ish games it’s a downright impressive line and getting better. I wonder how long it has to last before there’s a real sense that he made an actual, repeatable adjustment as opposed to simply riding a hot streak?

Preston

Well he is repeating the level, he would be expected to get significantly better. Until 10 games ago, he’d been even worse. I think he’d have to keep mashing for three solid months to earn a promotion and hit at high A before he was considered a real prospect again.

Cool Lester Smooth

He’s 20. There’s no shame in repeating Low-A as a 20 year old.

Coolkering101

Montgomery saw Betances get called up, so now he’s apparently trying to emulate him.

How about giving Thomas Neal a shot as a RH bat/OF? The curse of Ben Francisco lives.

The Melky Mesa Meltdown is off the charts bad. What up with that?

Electric Nunez ll

Its not a “meltdown”, which would imply a precipitous drop in performance. More like the more refined pitchers in AAA simply dissect him at the plate due to his hideously superb 80+ swing-and-miss tool. Imagine his line if he didn’t have a sweet .440 BABIP.

And now imagine if he were facing the even better pitchers in the majors. Not that that deterred some armchairs GM’s from claiming he should have been the LF starter out of ST w/ his awesome blend of speed, defense, and power.

Conor Gallogly

I thought he should be the fifth outfielder. Thought his defense and speed would make him more valuable than Francisco. But I admit, I was wrong. He’s been so terrible I wonder if he’s a plus in AAA.
